A US resident would like to invest in our new business which is registered in the UK as a LLP.
It is better if the US resident sets up a LLC in the USA and then join the UK LLP as a corporate member. In this scenario does this LLC have to register in the UK again as a overseas company before becoming a corporate member of the uk LLP or can the US LLC become a corporate member of a UK registered LLP that solely trades in the United Kingdom with a fixed premises in UK.
Any help or advise is appreciated

A UK LLP is a body corporate. This kind of entity is opaque for US tax purposes, but generally speaking transparent for UK tax purposes. Is a check the box election envisaged?
Kind regards
